Arrow Is it just me or is this whole thread just too much?

Seriously? What the Hell do you want? A AlphaRev member to pop out of your PC and run the hack for you? :eek:

[HTC EVO 3D] chefdave12118:
Easy guys! This guy being polite and asking an honest question. He's right ...... Not everyone that enjoys flashing roms, rooting, wifi tethering etc are computer geeks or even have a computer at their jobs. So to the weirdo that told him to study adb.... He shouldn't enjoy the benefits of a rooted phone because he's not completely computer literate? I own a restaurant, LEARN all my ingredients before you try my BANGING food or go home and eat Kraft Mac and cheese and think about my food because you don't know the ingredients. Tool bag.
[HTC EVO 3D] planet_x69:
I agree with the OP, it is more to some degree for the novice or new rooter, for the average person its going to dissuade them which from Sprints pov and these boards, that's probably a good thing.

Sure its relatively simple compared to phone <insert brand make model here> of yesterday....but its not as simple as phone <insert brand make model here>.

That was his point.

Once the official s-off arrives, it might become as simple as flash with s-off update, copy over zip to sd boot and move on......then again given the devices features it may never be.

But I am impressed with the speed to which the community has provide both detailed instructions but nearly fully featured roms only a few days after being hacked.

So KUDOS to the programers and those forgoing daylight to feed the need. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] spencer88:
I remember when I rooted my first Android phone, the OG EVO. I think I watched 2 videos on it, each one was 15 minutes each. I had to run a bunch of ADB commands, stop the phone in it's boot cycle and a bunch of other stuff. DEFINITELY a lot more complicated than it is now. But once you understand how the process works like first you have to turn the security of the phone off, and then install a recovery, it makes the whole process easier, no matter what phone you have.

And I'm all for HTC shipping new phones with S-OFF. I'm curious to see what method they will release for us around September.
[HTC EVO 3D] pastorbob:
Mytouch 3g slide was the worst i ever had to root.... I couldnt have asked for an easier meyhod.
[HTC EVO 3D] phatmanxxl:
I remember rooting my g1, that was a pain. There was no one click method at the time. If you can't follow a 3 step process then your better of having someone do it for you
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
OP! IF THIS is not simple enough for you then buy a mac and join the ones who can't root.

Or just go here and root the easy way...

[HTC EVO 3D] ballr4lyf:
HUGE difference in rooting your phone and what you're saying... You are PAID to provide a product. The S-OFF process and other development that occurs here is done for FREE. To even be a fair comparison, you would need to cook up enough of your "BANGING" food to feed everybody that wants it, and then provide it to them free of charge... 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You don't even have to divulge your ingredients. Do that, then you can talk smack.

If you can't take the time to learn some of the basics, then you're on your own... Nobody is asking you to learn ADB like the back of your hand, however you should know the simple stuff--like how to tell if your phone is connected to your ADB session, or how to browse the directory structure of your phone.

To the OP, I haven't even rooted my phone yet, and I can tell you that this process is incredibly simple compared to previous phones I've rooted. Even the OG Evo (prior to Unrevoked providing a full root) was a little bit more complicated.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vdubtx:
I remember the same thing. Lots of adb commands to get rooted and was a total noob at that time. Much easier on the Evo3D. Thanks AlphaRev and Unrevoked. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Drachen808:
You are forgeting the clicks necessary to find the one click app. LOL

Seriously, this is pretty darn easy and I really don't have a lot of expertise in this area. I one clicked my way to root on the hero, but then also rooted the moment (SUCKED!). This is REEEEEEEALY close to one click.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
I hate to break it to you but your analogy fails. Which makes sense that you're a cook and not a writer. Lol.

Your customer going home and making EXACTLY what you would have made him in his own microwave in half the time and still not knowing what's in it would make more sense.

Your analogy makes it sound like you are charging him to root his phone because he doesn't know how to...or doesn't want to take the time to learn, but still wants it.

Are we not Phones?

We are EVO

I am guessing you are not a power user or a developer OP??? If not, wasn't meant for you.
[HTC EVO 3D] felacio:
OK... I'm going to say it.

I think s=off should be a little harder. I don't think it should be a 1-click deal.

Root. Yeah. 1click is hunky dory. But s-off should be an ordeal. Something you earned. And if you did it right and answered the Griffins 3 riddles then you are obviously smart enough to NOT "accidently" flash a half downloaded rom without a nand backup present.

Just my opinion anyways...

Are we not Phones?

[HTC EVO 3D] vanjangles:
I think the method is very easy, it's pratically dummy proof.
[HTC EVO 3D] dannytill:
How much easier can a self contained .exe file that you just have to run be? If you are not computer literate and don't know how to follow simple directions with very few steps I might add then I agree with some other posters maybe you don't really need to root your phone. The whole process especially for a beta couldn't be more transparently simple. This s-off method is for all intents and purposes a 1-click. Yes, to get root you need one more step but they gave a very apparent disclaimer when they released this tool that it's for devs or other brave people that want to take the dive. If the effort seems too much for you just wait I'm sure a more complete 1-click solution will arrive down the road.
[HTC EVO 3D] janitorjohnson:
I found the process to be pretty simple once I removed every driver off of my computer and re-installed sdk and the other drivers. I spent several hours and two bricks rooting my EVO 4G. Of course, I was a complete noob that didn't read the whole post then. I didn't realize that with every update came a new process.
[HTC EVO 3D] z31k:
Lmao!!! This made my day...
[HTC EVO 3D] obZen33:
Haven't rooted my 3D yet, but i must say it looks pretty straightforward. I also somewhat enjoy performing the steps though.
[HTC EVO 3D] mmoser7:
not rly

I don't think it is too difficult. It is almost entirely automated with the 'revolutionary' file.

I agree that a one-click solution would be a simpler solution -- as would the phone coming with S-off right out of the box. I personally enjoy doing a little bit of the work to root my device myself.
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
The alpharev root for the 3D was the simplest root i've had to do so far. You have to compare root methods to other phones when they first come out and this one has the least amount of steps. The simple root methods usually come out weeks after a root method is done.
[HTC EVO 3D] james873:
I found it extremly easy read step by step and was done in about 20 min.

This.....couldn't have said it better!
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Just you...
[HTC EVO 3D] mkhopper:
Personally, I don't like one-click rooting methods.

Thumbs up to the devs who develop them for sure, since I strive for shortcuts myself in most anything I do in the IT field, but when it comes to doing hairy things to my phone, I'd much rather step through a long, maybe complicated process.

Quick rooting programs are nice, but all the magic and potentially scary stuff is going on behind the scenes and if something goes wrong, you have have no idea until it's too late.

With a step by step process, you can follow the progress and act when or if something goes wrong.

###Process to root###

Read.

Read some more.

Prepare your files.

Read through the process again.

Execute the steps slowly and carefully, taking note that each step returns exactly what you expect.
[HTC EVO 3D] Zabalba:
OP, just leave the forum. If you can not follow directions and are too scared to try anything that may have a chance to brick your phone, you do not belong here.

Be a good consumer and pay $30 for tethering because you know, and we know you are not here to trying anything more engaging than flashing roms and kernels.
[HTC EVO 3D] beyond882001:
I concur
[HTC EVO 3D] rhonal89:
They made the rooting step noob proof. That's why they so long. To me it looked way easier than rooting the mytouch slide now that's a phone that required patience when it got rooted.

Hey guys i was wondering if its possible to theme the default messaging app thats by samsung, Like id be interested if its possible to change the background in the conversation menu to pure black (it would use less battery) rather than grey, it would also be cool to change the bubble colours possibly.

Is this possible? And how would it be achieved, input from "pro" themers would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you! :)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chopper the dog:
So with complete thanks and praise to dreamsforgotten for this vanilla GB mod located here. This mod worked on the rom out of the box. But signal bar reporting was broken on our device (since it was made for the nexus s4g on sprint). So I only credit myself for finding the proper smali edits to get the signal bars to work with our (fascinate) build of Vanilla AOSP Gingerbread from jt1134 located here.

+Text Version.

Credits:

dreamsforgotten -for the whole original mod.

notta -For fixing my ****!

jt1134 -for doing what he does and bringing a no bull**** AOSP build to the fascinate.

BrwnSuperman -For the screen caps and IRC testings.

sbrissen, nitsuj17, OMJ and all the peeps at #teamsbrissenmod (freenode-irc) that let me lurk and learn.

*special note* kudos to sbrissen, because after staring at smali **** for 4 hours. I can't even fathom the eye problems he must have from bringing the awesome mods he does to our device.

****080411**** OK lets try this again. So notta was kind enough to fix a major bulk of the issues with the USB screen mount screen and usb icon and sync icon in the taskbar. But after looking at the images in the apk I realized that the wifi, sound toggle and rotation ids were still wrong and used the awesome tip from dreamsforgotten and figured out the wrong ids and made the proper smali edits.

****080511am**** Just tested on V3 080411 build. And all is well.

****080511pm**** Added version with text (credit notta on this one). Also sound image smali fixed for all vibrate/sound profiles.

****080811pm**** Fixed USB storage mount (only no text version at the moment)

************KNOWN ISSUES************

There should be none now. Keep me posted.

Flash at your own risk.... bla bla bla......

Flash in cwm (don't 3 finger) and enjoy.

Don't flash within same cwm seesion as rom. (flash rom, boot, flash mod)

THIS IS ONLY FOR VANILLA GINGERBREAD BUILD GRJ90 080811 FOR THE VZW FASCINATE by: jt1134.

*Pro Tip* DO NOT flash this if you have flashed a theme already. And if you flash a theme that does not have this incorporated into it after flashing this, it will be overwritten.

themers - if you use this mod PLEASE give credit to where it is due (dreamsforgotten, notta and me :p ).

good day.

that may be the problem, the zip here is dated 8/2 and I thought it was updated for the rom (it was updated on 8/2 also). If this is the issue just disregard my post and I will check back for the updated release.. it looks great by the way! nice work..
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] BrwnSuperman:
Another symbol bug, the sync symbol is the scan SD one.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] dreamsforgotten:
This is what you gotta do decompile system ui with framework res.apk

As a dependency. Then you decompile mine. Open my strings.xml public.xml for sure ids too compare the rest. Add what's missing into the regular Xmls then into the proper section in public. Give the items new ids in public, and add the quick panel settings layout in the layout folder with an id in public too. Copy over my quick panel folder in classes.dex next open the smali files compare my public ids to your new public.xml and take the new correct id number and replace in smali. There is a tool called remapid that will save tons of time!

how hard (I am not skilled in these things) might it be to alter the icons shown?

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] dreamsforgotten:
Easy, open the apk on your pc, copy systemui.apk to your desktop from inside the zip. Open it as a zip file archive and you will see a folder inside called res. Open that folder and look for drawable-hdpi inside there are all your icons.

If you toggled wifi than that was probably a wifi to data hand off error and it seems to happen maybe every 1 out if 15 times using wifi. I've even had this happen before adding this mod. And a simple toggle into airplane mode will save the reboot time :cool: .

But the 0802 file is still good to use with yesterdays 080411 V3 release.

Not that I could not afford it but I dumb to pay for double the internet when I can only use it one place at a time. Anyways, to anser your question OP... Yes you can. Just get a voice plan.
